We encourage everyone to share ideas and resources (lessons, tasks, 3-Acts, FALs, sample student work, websites, etc.) that you have created or found that may be helpful to Algebra I teachers. Use the EDIT tab above to post resources. The discussion area at the bottom of the page can be used to discuss or inquire about posted resources, or to request resources from fellow Algebra I teachers.
If you have questions on how to post resources or start a discussion, please contact me Brooke Kline for assistance.
Excellent video of Georgia students engaged in all of the SMPs. The students are part of an Algebra I class at North Hall Middle School in Hall County, Georgia. This video was part of Dan Meyer's blog post //Marbleslide Madness//; a post which called attention to the new Desmos Marbleslide activity.
